Slum Lord returns to its hometown to reignite Utica slam with a lineup that includes Tentacles, Irongate, Mental Anguish, and Verevaen. The performance is set for the outdoor stage, bringing an open-air energy to the show.

Celebrating more than five decades, this fall running tradition brings runners to downtown Utica at the State Office Building for a 5k, a 14k with scenic switchbacks, and a kids run. The 5k begins with a gentle climb over the first half mile, makes a right at the traffic circle to stay on the 5k route, then moves onto flatter terrain. The second mile starts with a slight rise and finishes level, and the final 1.1 miles largely mirror the opening stretch in reverse. The 14k shares the opening segment, then turns left at the traffic circle and continues with a gradual climb before a steeper push into the park. Middle miles feature picturesque but demanding switchbacks on park roads, followed by a mostly downhill section and a more relaxed descent leading to a quick finish. After the races, a post race celebration and awards ceremony at DoubleTree by Hilton Utica is presented by ICONIC, with awards for overall and age group winners in both the 5k and 14k.
